Blackduck Sent Men and Tenstrike Took Engine Which Saved Mill and Store. Fire destroyed 75,000 poles and posts in Hines yesterday afternoon. They had been skinned and were lying beside the railrood track ready for shipment. It is thought that the fire started from one that had been smouldering in a nearby swamp for several days. It was soon seen that the Hines force could not cope with the blaze and help was asked from Tenstrike and Blackduck. Both" towns sent down and the Tenstrike department took their engine. The engine pumped water from a deep well and was able to save the mill and general store. Kaye & Carter of Hines, and S. E. Thompson of Blackduck, are the men by Congressman F. W.
